Kitten Ambush - Milestone Update

I finally finished the Milestone lists. A few of the code milestones are a little abstract mainly due to not knowing the exact details of what will be involved. If this were a slightly more professional gig, I would have included projected dates of completion for each. Seeing as how this is a learning project, I decided to omit them.

The Kitten is done being modeled and textured. I have one variation, and I will add additional variations over the course of the project. I have begun the skeleton layout for the kitten which I will be duplicating for each feline to share animations.

Kitten Ambush - Update

So I'm a little behind on my personal milestones for this project. I ended up not liking the silhouette of the first kitten so I reworked it... then reworked the eyes... and now I'm deciding it needs whiskers and am debating the best way to implement them: pure geometry or use a texture with transparency?

I believe the geometry method would be best approach; but seeing as how this is a learning process, or relearning process, I think I'll use the transparency method regardless of the performance hit. After the whiskers I can finish the eyes and finally be done with the first kitten variation.

I've also started putting together a milestone sheet. I've got the design milestones detailed out. I'll finish the milestones for art and code tonight so I have a game plan in place and get continue making progress on this medium sized project.
